About Nor Cal Tax

For more than 25 years, Nor Cal Tax has been serving the Sacramento area with practical expertise and a personal touch. We’re not a franchise—we’re a family who believes in relationships first, taxes second.

Rooted in Sacramento, built on relationships

The story behind the numbers

Nor Cal Tax began as a small, family-owned business with one goal: to make professional tax help feel approachable. Steve Savell started the firm more than two decades ago, and today, he works alongside his wife Kelly and niece Andrea, continuing a legacy of personalized service that’s been passed down—and forward—to new generations of clients.


What makes us different isn’t just our credentials—it’s our relationships. Clients who came to Steve for help with their first tax returns now send their kids and grandkids to our office each spring. We’re proud to be part of Sacramento’s story, one family at a time.
